Review on ILM Winter Alloy Steel Motorcycle 🧀 Riding Gloves - Warm, Waterproof, and Windproof by Brockington Zuniga

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good gloves but should be listed as: (AUTUMN) NOT (WINTER)

The weather here in the satanic hole aka New York has started to get worse and even more so the temperature is dropping, the it becomes more difficult to keep your paws on the bike. However, I just bought a pair of these ILM [Winter] gloves to go with my "Summer" version. The look is the same, the quality is the same, but they have longer cuffs and an inner lining. On November 2nd, 2020 the temperature dropped to 30 so I figured it was the perfect time to try them. I did a two hour drive. After about 30 minutes my hands and fingers were already cold. They didn't freeze and I was still able to hold onto the steering wheel and operate the controls, but cold hands are cold hands. It's just getting colder in here, so they either don't work or they need another thin glove as a second pad inside. Features - They feel well built and offer decent hand protection from both the back and palm. Using the touchscreen was a bit awkward, to say the least, but it worked - to an extent. In terms of comfort - for the most part they were comfortable. I noticed that I could feel my pinky resting on one of the fingertips on one of the gloves. Annoying, but I'm used to that. Warm - no. They're just not for "winter" - as advertised. [At least not in the winter here in New York] I would say that they probably work well in temperatures of 50 to 70 degrees. Anything below that - cold hands. All about it - hands are likely to get too hot/sweaty. Overall - they're keepers - just to see how well they actually lay back with use over time.

Pros
  • Absolute Legend
Cons
  • No Automatic
